Chapter 111 The second suicide

 Jing Xiangming’s wife came to the security bureau at 4:30 in the afternoon.

After learning about her husband's condition, she didn't complain. The emotion in her eyes was more of guilt and uneasiness.

"Mr. Jing's condition is not stable. I suggest you pay close attention to his actions and call us immediately if anything unexpected happens." Chu Yuexi said to Jing Xiangming's wife.

Meng Dongxia on the side also left her her phone number: "Welcome to contact you at any time."

Jing Xiangming's wife bowed to the two of them and thanked them, then supported her husband and slowly walked to the nearby bus stop.

"Dongxia, I have a mission." Lin Jie walked over from a corner of the hall and patted his partner on the back.

"What's wrong?"

"Someone jumped into the sea at Mingguang Bridge." Lin Jie explained concisely and concisely.

Meng Dongxia's eyes flashed, she made a farewell gesture to Chu Yuexi next to her, and trotted to follow Lin Jie to the motorcycle garage.

Chu Yuexi stood at the door of the hall and murmured to herself: "Is it suicide again?"

She couldn't help but mentally connect the man who jumped into the sea with the supernatural crime in the dream.

Taking out her phone, Chu Yuexi searched for the post that Yu Zhesen had shared with her before.

The post owner "Seventeen Years Old Wanderer" updated a reply 20 minutes ago.

"I will go to the deep sea to find the pure paradise."

Chu Yuexi read out this short reply and suddenly felt difficulty breathing and a chill on her back.

She quickly turned around and ran to the reception room. When she reached the door, she found that Yu Zhesen was not inside, and there was no one in the monitoring room next door.

Only Sister Zhang and Xiao Yin were in the police office. It was almost time to get off work, and they seemed a little idle.

Chu Yuexi, who couldn't find anyone, decided to call Yu Zhesen. Just when she was about to dial, she saw Yu Zhesen walking out of the elevator across the corridor.

"Yu Zhesen!"

Yu Zhesen walked towards her.

"The forum post has been updated! The post owner also plans to commit suicide just like Jing Xiangming!"

"I already know." Yu Zhesen nodded, "When I was talking to instructor Claire just now, I heard the news about someone jumping into the sea at Mingguang Bridge, so I read that post on a whim."

"I watched it too, and sure enough you think there is a connection between the two." Chu Yuexi said, "But why did Mr. Nightmare influence those people to commit suicide? Is this of any benefit to him?"

"I don't know, maybe the answer can only be found by finding the body of the nightmare in reality."

He no longer calls him "Mr. Nightmare" because he subconsciously believes that such a criminal does not deserve the honorific title.

"Have you made any progress with Miss Yu's help?"

"Well, I just went to report this to Claire."

"That code word..."

"It's true."

Chu Yuexi took a breath of air: "In other words, if we fall asleep repeating that code word over and over again in our minds, we may also encounter Mr. Nightmare in our dreams?"

"Probably so."

Chu Yuexi asked hesitantly: "What are you going to do? Are you going to try to meet him?"

"No, this is very dangerous." Yu Zhesen shook his head, "Claire does not allow me to take action privately."

He looked at the thoughtful Chu Yuexi and added: "Of course you don't take this risk."

"Can I understand this as concern?" Chu Yuexi tilted her head and showed a sweet smile.

Yu Zhesen raised the corner of his mouth: "Think about your parents. If you are caught in the trap, you probably won't be able to hide your work in the field department."

Chu Yuexi's face turned pale instantly: "Then it's over, they will definitely ask me to quit this job, no, no, no..."

The sound of thick-soled boots came from the corridor. Yu Qingxue glanced at the two of them and walked into the police office.

After a while, she came out of the office with her briefcase and said to Yu Zhesen: "I'm going home first. If you have nothing to do after get off work, come back early and let's talk."

"Huh?"

Chu Yuexi looked at Yu Qingxue's leaving back in surprise, and then looked at Yu Zhesen who was standing there blankly.

"Are you...are you living together?" she asked in disbelief, with a hint of unnoticeable sadness in her tone.

"In order to cooperate with the investigation from above."

"So you really live together?"

"Well, temporarily." Yu Zhesen said, "It can be as short as three months or as long as half a year. She is my tenant."

"Oh oh..."

Yu Zhesen originally thought that the topic would end here, but half a minute later Chu Yuexi asked out of nowhere: "Does sister know?"

"Ah? What does it have to do with her..."

Yu Zhesen answered with obvious guilt. After all, before An He left Qidao, they spent an unforgettable night in a love hotel.

He didn't tell An He about moving. The last recorded conversation between them on the chat software was the LoveTime location he sent to An He.

As if out of anger, An He didn't contact her at all after the plane landed, and he didn't take the initiative to contact her after that.

It seemed as if the entanglement that night was like a one-night stand. After the excitement, they went back to their separate lives...

But thinking about it carefully that night, it seems that they did not make any plans or requirements for each other's future.

Isn't this more like a one-night stand? Yu Zhesen held his forehead regretfully and reflected.

"I think we should talk to her, right? What if she comes back to see you quietly one day... it would be bad if there is a misunderstanding or something." Chu Yuexi's words brought Yu Zhesen's thoughts back to reality.

This seems to be a thoughtful consideration, but Yu Zhesen has no motivation to do it.

Tell An He specifically that he is living with Yu Qingxue now? No matter how you look at it, it sounds like there is no three hundred taels of silver here.

"Forget it, let's talk about it later when we have a chance."

An He returned to Xingzhou City this time to help An Zhitian deal with some difficult matters, and he probably won't be able to come back for a while.

Maybe by the time she is free and can come to the Seven Islands again, Yu Qingxue's investigation will be over, so there is no need to even mention this episode.

……

Half an hour later, Lin Jie and Meng Dongxia returned.

The person who jumped into the sea at Mingguang Bridge has been fished out and has been sent to the hospital for rescue, but it is unclear whether he can be rescued.

They went to the scene and confirmed the identity of the person who jumped into the sea, a 35-year-old former insurance company employee who had just lost his job.

The surveillance footage on the bridge showed that this person indeed jumped into the sea on his own. From an outsider's perspective, it was an incident where an ordinary unemployed person chose to commit suicide out of frustration. Reporters on the scene also reported similar reasons.

But these are just appearances.

Through Yiguang, we can compare the real-name information of the "Seventeen-year-old Drifter" on the forum background and confirm that they are the same person.

Yu Zhesen and Chu Yuexi, who knew the inside story, felt quite heavy.

In just one day, they had already met two people who committed suicide after coming into contact with the nightmare.

Today is Akira Igo and the "Seventeen-year-old Drifter", who will be the next victim?

"I want to change my life, even if it's just a flashy and unreal dream for a moment." This code word is full of vain and negative fantasies.

The more unobtainable something is, the more addictive it is, and the same is true for dreams.

Yu Zhesen sat in the police office, staring at the computer screen in a daze.

"It's already time to get off work." Shi Xin reminded him like an alarm clock in his mind.

"Yeah, I know."

"There is a beautiful woman waiting for you at home."

"Is there a beautiful woman who doesn't have a good look on me all day long?" Yu Zhesen sneered, "Let her wait. Anyway, she will just ask some boring questions when she goes back."

His smirking face was reflected on the closed computer screen.

"Xiao Yu, let's get off work first."

"Okay Sister Zhang, Sister Xiao Yin, please go slowly." Yu Zhesen pretended to start clearing his seat.

When turning off the power to the socket, he saw the tablet charger, which Yu Qingxue had dropped.

It seems that this "imperial envoy" from Xingzhou City is not so careful...

Yu Zhesen shook his head and helped her unplug the charger and put it into the pocket of his coat.

Yu Qingxue did him a favor today and contributed to Jing Xiangming's investigation, and he didn't mind helping her with some trivial things.

This may be the beginning of improving the stiff relationship between each other.
